Kendor Music is well-known in the jazz education community and has gained prominence in all areas of school music publishing. Since 2012, Hal Leonard has partnered with Kendor Music as their exclusive distributor for digital downloads. Now for the first time, the entire Kendor catalog is available digitally through the Hal Leonard Digital Retailer program. This program allows retailers to sell digital downloads of sheet music, scores, and parts to their customers in-store or from their own websites so that their entire catalog is accessible 24/7 from anywhere at any time!
Featuring over 2,500 educational editions for jazz ensemble, string orchestra, instrumental solo & ensembles, and books, the Kendor catalog includes music from all genres and levels. Founded in 1954, Kendor Music is also the exclusive distributor of Doug Beach Music and Sammy Nestico Music.
“We are honored to represent the Kendor catalog to the digital marketplace,” said Chris Koszuta, Hal Leonard’s Vice President, Digital & eCommerce. “We know that digital options for educators are more important than ever right now and are glad we can bring this rich catalog to so many more people.”
Craig Cornwall, Kendor Music’s President said “We are thrilled with the growth of our digital catalog. What a benefit it was to have this partnership in place for retailers and schools prior to the pandemic.”
